    GIGABYTE AORUS FV43U 43 inch 4k 144 HDR1000 QLED monitor

    For what it's worth, I don't recall ever having turned mine on more than once to get it to display the signal from my 3080. When my PC is cold booted it does take a while before it picks up the signal. Longer than my 27" secondary monitor. As far as the cable goes it's not the wiring but the...

    Local Dimming I don't use it anymore. It's completely useless on this monitor once you know the problem it causes. The zones dim too readily, dimming entire scenes constantly, drastically reducing contrast within each zone itself, making scenes darker than they should be with a subdued, veiled...

    Does it seem to randomly drop the signal during use or does it only happen when you turn it on / wake it up from sleep? Mine seemed to randomly drop the signal during use, requiring a monitor power cycle to get it back. It was the Spotify website. See attached pic. It was fixed after disabling...

    For the record, I have the ULMB option in 516.94.

    GIGABYTE AORUS FV43U 43 inch 4k 144 HDR1000 QLED monitor

    Came here looking for info on firmware version F07. Didn't find any, instead I see a bunch of people very confused about what they're looking at. It's really simple. What you're looking at here is simply VA dark smearing due to slow pixel response for dark transitions. The reason it gets worse...

    FV43U or QN90A / QN90B?

    It's there, trust me, and I'll prove it to you with your own G7 and bet my life's savings on it, that it stutters with VRR Control enabled. A lot of customers are mad at Samsung specifically because "VRR Control" is not a fix, it's a mockery. It replaces flicker with microstutter. Samsung didn't...

    GIGABYTE AORUS FV43U 43 inch 4k 144 HDR1000 QLED monitor

    It makes sense when you consider that mouse & kb don't require USB3's bandwidth, and it's a "kvm" feature, as in meant for keyboard, video and mouse. So if it's cheaper to have USB2 KVM-capable interfaces than USB3 ones, they're going to cut that cost. If you have an external HDD attached to a...

    FV43U or QN90A / QN90B?

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the QN90 and FV43U anyway. Edit: Here's a youtube video comparing QN90A and QN90B. Here's another, 90B has improved local dimming, game mode included.

    FV43U or QN90A / QN90B?

    I intentionally put the exact product names in the title that the thread is about comparing: QN90A, QN90B and FV43U. All three are LCD. If anyone is not yet sure if they want LCD or an alternative technology, this QN90 vs FV43U thread is not the place to discuss that, nor the place to discuss...

    GIGABYTE AORUS FV43U 43 inch 4k 144 HDR1000 QLED monitor

    IMO as far as red ghosting goes in shooters it's not really noticeable. It stands out most when things move left or right across the screen, as in: panning. Turning the camera around in a shooter doesn't really do that (spins everything around your viewpoint), neither does walking / running...

    New Iiyama 43" 4K G4380UHSU-B1 Red Eagle significantly undercuts price of FV43U

    Oh I hadn't noticed he wrote in the comments: " I think it comes from the camera which films in 60 fps a screen going from 144 fps. " He's unsure and I don't believe his assumption because to accept it, someone would have to explain to me how a frame rate difference could cause a change in...

    GIGABYTE AORUS FV43U 43 inch 4k 144 HDR1000 QLED monitor

    It's going to sound weird because it's marketed as a gaming monitor but I agree for mixed use if you're not playing games several days a week for hours at a time, and it's not the main priority. The ghosting is not as likely to bother you in that case. Same if you're going to be distancing...

    FV43U or QN90A / QN90B?

    You're welcome Vorpel. ;) RTINGS are working on their QN90B review, won't be long before it goes up. One thing I want to point out with regard to PC usage is that if you're like me and you're going to play games on it and don't expect to be able to run every current and future title at native...

    New Iiyama 43" 4K G4380UHSU-B1 Red Eagle significantly undercuts price of FV43U

    Speaking from first hand experience with VA panels, no it is not inherent to VA. Only some VA panels do this. And it's really, really bad on my FV43U. :cry: Edit: That Amazon review is great so I'll put it here: The Polish review doesn't teach us much new information. They did measure...
